Danny MacAskill cycling stunts seen by millions

Tens of millions people have now watched what is the arguably the most impressive bicycle street trials riding ever captured on film.

Why is trials riding growing in popularity?

Investment in cycling facilities in Britain is poor – street trials relies on no more than the correct type of bike and the urban landscape. Oh, and lots and lots of practice. There are parallels with ‘parkour’, a discipline that involves running, jumping and climbing, primarily in built-up urban environments, and that first started in the suburbs of Paris.

Who needs cycle insurance?

You don’t have to be performing wild stunts to need cycle insurance – bikes are vulnerable to theft and in the case of an accident you may need to seek compensation or even deal with a claim by someone else. Cycle insurance from the ETA is fully comprehensive.

At no extra cost, it includes new-for-old replacement, cover for accidental damage, third party insurance, personal accident cover and if you breakdown, we will even come out and recover you and your bike.
